FAQ
Have a burning question?
We’re here to provide clear and helpful answers to all your inquiries.
What are these treasure hunts about?
Our company organizes high-tech outdoor treasure hunts that challenge participants' problem-solving and navigation skills. Teams use aerial imagery, GPS technology, and their own wit to decode clues and locate a hidden prize. It's an educational adventure that combines orienteering, local geography knowledge, and teamwork in a fun, competitive format. The event has a fixed entry fee, and all participants have an equal opportunity to win based on their skills and strategy - there's no element of chance involved in determining the winner. We're creating unforgettable experiences that get people outdoors, learning new skills, and engaging with their environment in exciting ways.
What do I get by joining?
Participants pay to join the hunt and receive daily aerial photos of the treasure location + eligibility for the prize. Each day's photo is taken from a higher altitude, revealing more of the surrounding area. These expanding views help hunters piece together clues and narrow down the treasure's location over time. Combine this with an ever shrinking search circle that is publicly available on this website.
What does the winner receive?
The winner receives the event reward along with the prize pool, which is made up of one-third of all entry fees collected for that event.
How long does the event last?
The event can last up to 28 days, but the treasure is likely to be found before then. On the 28th day, the search radius will be narrowed to just 1 meter, making it clear to everyone where the treasure is located.
Who can participate?
All participants must be at least 18 years old and capable of engaging in a game of skill. The activity involves hiking on outdoor trails, which, like any physical activity, carries inherent risks.
How is the winner determined?
The first registrant to locate the treasure will be declared the winner. They must retrieve the trophy on-site and pose for the trail cam to verify their identity. Once the treasure is found, please contact our team to claim your reward and prize pool.
What is allowed in terms of tools & conduct?
Registrants are able to use any tools (compass, GPS, Camera, Google Earth, Super Sonic Jets, etc.) to find the treasure. Any registrant found to be engaging in fowl play (malicious actions, threats, or the like) will be disqualified.
How will participants know when the treasure has been found?
Once the treasure has been discovered and the registrant contacted we will make announcement on the event page.
What safety measures should participants take?
This adventure involves moderate hiking. Participants should take the same reasonable precautions as they would on any weekend hike: dress appropriately, share your plans with others, and take care of yourself like a responsible adult.
Is there a fee to access public land where the treasure is hidden?
The treasure will be hidden on publicly accessible land with no entry fee. However, participants may incur costs for parking, road tolls, or other items beyond our control, which we cannot manage.
What if someone outside of the event finds the treasure?
If a non-registrant discovers the treasure location, the prize will be relocated. However, the search radius will remain the same size as it was at the time of discovery.
Are there legal considerations for participating?
All registrants will be required to sign a waiver prior to participation.
How do the trail cameras work?
Any footage from trail cameras at the prize location will be directly displayed on the website, allowing participants and visitors to view real-time updates and interactions captured at the site. This feature enhances the experience by providing a glimpse into the wildlife and activity surrounding the treasure.
